<p>thats one of the clips I had in mind. on some chords he is probably just dampening, but i'm pretty sure he also frets a lot with his thumb. ballad in a trio setting kind of calls for somewhat bigger chords than usually...<br />
using a chord chart of darn that dream you should be able to figure out most of the chords he plays.

yeah he uses it a lot. especially with the red 335 which has a really tiny neck, I'm sure he'd be able to fret both E and A strings

Fri, 14 Sep 2012 10:11:53 +0000JPMike8552@http://www.kurtrosenwinkel.com/forum/<p>I noticed that Kurt uses his thumb most of the times to play notes on the 6th string, any insight on how he's using it or on what kind of material?
